Patware posted:was that... it??? Not yet. And considering how long this series has gone on for, when it does end, it'll probably be a bigger deal. The person who did this translation, for whatever reason, obscured the text that the publisher adds, all of which indicates that it's got a bit more to go before it finishes.

I could honestly rant and rave about the things I hate about that chapter. The art. The dog. The depiction of women in it. Ippo himself. The non-resolution of at least 2 different threads. The utter lack of character growth. Jesus, it's a perfect storm of terrible and my least favourite parts of this manga. If this is it, it leaves me feeling happy, because I sure as hell don't want more of this.

The prologue is over and now we're getting a timeskip to Ippo's son's career.

I mean, you say that, but one of the best things that doing that with Naruto achieved is going from an incredibly sparse weekly to a much more dense and satisfying monthly series. It's much better for the change, and it shows.

It turns out, he's ok! His dick is so big, his brain doesn't get much oxygen anyway, so minimal damage can occur! Next part of this series will be Ippo trying to make it in porn vs Mr. Narcus, Jon Homes, Flexington Iron and all the dick legends from porn

Remember when they introduced Keromichi and the author used the character to make Ippo appear like someone who knows the basics of boxing, explaining them to Keromichi? Ippo was supposed to have become a boxing otaku having dozens of books about it, but after Keromichi went away he was the one asking the most basic questions again.

Man you are hosed up. Sides Ippo is too much of a wuss to try to be a murder.

What a lovely ending. To be honest I have felt that this manga has been phoning it in for the last several years and character development stopped over a decade ago. This is what happens when you write the same story for over 20 years.

Is that for sure the end?

whats supremely irritating about it all is that this DIDNT NEED TO GO THIS WAY. there was no reason to give us the fakeout with miyata literally hundreds of chapters and years and years ago. they couldve fought, miyata could have moved up in weight class, the story could continue. instead we got decades of nonsense for no reason

This has been pretty poo poo but it's pretty clear unless the dude dies this is gonna continue after some timeskip probably with the whole mind metaphor at the end

So looking it up apparently in the official english translation his name is Wally. Anyway, don't forget the parts where he literally grabs the rope, one handed, in order to hang around in midair and climbs onto the corner of the ring. I'm not super familiar with all the rules of boxing but I feel like climbing the ring isn't allowed.

Frabba posted:It's a more poorly drawn version of what Bryan Hawk would do. There's other examples in the fight of Wally doing Bryan Hawk's swayback that are clearly shown. The difference here is that Wally is swaying back while utilizing forward momentum. Oh, and because Wally is an OP boss character, he can also use Sendo's smash and Mashiba's flicker jabs. He wan't even taught them - they just came with his genius-level talent.
